I did it several years ago.
So if you haven't done that, you'll discover something.
a lot of the hurdles that our officers, our brave officers, deal with on a daily basis.
Two things I want to talk about, though.
One is, you know, our new chief and other...
Law enforcement entities across the state announced our Operation Safe Season just a couple of days ago.
Right here in this room, a couple council members were here.
And it's a really great way to leverage law enforcement officers horizontally without having to have a strong increase in budget.
Their focus will be uptown initially, but that's an enclosed learning process that they would take their learnings and best practices and then expand it out.
And so you will see a different presence uptown across the board and all four wards.
And I think it's really important.
And I've gotten some feedback from community members that they feel really good about that.
Having said that, though, with the issues that just occurred on the light rail, yet again, we are understanding that public safety is critically important and it does not simply equal law enforcement officers.
We welcome the collaboration.
That will help.
But that's not going to get us across the finish line.
We need a plan, a strong plan that emphasizes a variety of different key areas, including mental health and how we can leverage mental health services with other agencies across the state and the region.
And so I hope that as we move forward,
next year that we will have a crystallized plan on how we can work intergovernmentally and across other agencies to have a multi-pronged approach to public safety and as we continue to be in the national eye yet and yet again with these issues and then also you know with the surge that occurred
There's all eyes on Charlotte, and it's an opportunity for Charlotte to really step up and demonstrate not only to the region and the state, but the entire country, that we're a world-class city.
